John is back for a super special Six Song with a theme. In fact it’s so special, there are actually seven songs for your listening pleasure.

• Dandy Warhols - Mohammed, Nietzche
• Local H - How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Rock, 500,000 Scovilles, What Can I Tell You
• Less Than Jake - Motto, History of a Boring Town

And yes, I produced this episode hence the many many seconds of non-speaking at the beginning. But hey, I don’t claim to be a radio professional by any means eh. Thank goodness for podcasting.

For the last 18 years the New Music West festival has been a centerpiece for independent music, musicians, and industry professionals in Vancouver.

I was able to contact Jory Groberman from 29 Productions (the folks who made New Music West possible for the last few years) and chat a bit about what’s in store. What’s also pretty cool is that they’re handing me a media pass for the event(s) so watch for more announcements and coverage in the month ahead.

I (Rebecca) take the helm of Episode #144 as I capture, edit and publish the audio I recorded with Keira-Anne a few weeks ago during a weekend jaunt to Vancouver Island. We put the call out on our blogs for questions - any questions and were very pleased with the overwhelming response. [Keira-Anne][Miss604]

This is actually part one and we’re uncertain when the raw, uncut “part two” will be released. So for now, enjoy the sounds of a BC Ferry, and two girls who are super excited to hit the powder up on Mt. Washington.

Tunes played with permission from the artists:

• Shiny Toy Guns - Le Disko
• Against Me! - Borne on the FW Waves

Putting together some sample audio for Rebecca’s segment on The Lab with Leo.

The episode about the basics of podcasting should be airing in late April or May, 2008.

This is some audio that we recorded last August after spending a weekend in Osoyoos, B.C. This audio has been sitting around for nearly six months, and I finally got around to editing it. There’s more where this came from, so look for more in the future.

There is still music in this one, as does every episode of RZ.

• Less Than Jake - rest of my life
• Aberdeen City - this is our problem tonight
• Sparta - untreatable disease
• Local H - hey, rita
• Dick Prall - bye, bye, bye

It’s good to get back in the saddle. This is one of three, “catch up” episodes to back fill on those six songs that have been missed. Consider it my Christmas present to you. Watch for a quick turn around on the next two episodes, bringing us up to date and a close for 2007 for the six songs on RZ.

• Soft - dumb blood
• Shiny Toy Guns - rainy monday
• Aberdeen City - sixty lives
• Sebadoh - it’s all you
• Longwave - i know it’s coming someday
• Local H - buffalo trace

A long over due episode, but an episode none the less. I take you with me on the road for this six song, a carefully crafted episode that I threw together in haste. Theme? My birthday was last month, so I play tracks that I’ve long wanted to play on RZ but never found the way or time to get them in.

• Lou Barlow - caterpillar girl
• Rainer Maria - catasrophe
• The Dandy Warhols - godless
• The Secret Machines - first wave intact
• The Appleseed Cast - losing touching searching
• Aberdeen City - best chances are gone
• Eels - grace kelly blues

Flying blind with a case of the Mondays I just wanted to crank out an episode and play some kickin’ tunes. On top of featuring artists who all have concerts in town this month, I prepared some Vancouver trivia for John in honor of his 2 year ‘Vancouver anniversary’, which is just around the corner.

I, Rebecca, join John for this late, but ‘better-late-than-never’, episode of RadioZoom as we dedicate #138 to entirely Can-Con.

What’s Can-Con you ask? Well tune right in while we educate the masses about how broadcasters in Canada are required by law to give Canadian artists and Canadian produced music 35% of their airplay. We one-up these regulations and churn out 100% Canadian content and share six awesome tracks.

Thanks so much to Matthew Good for allowing us to kick off with tunes from his newly-released album, and to the other artists linked below whose music we found on IODA Promonet and the Podsafe Music Network.

• Matthew Good - i am not safer than a bank
• Matthew Good - the boy come home
• Danko Jones - baby hates me
• David Usher - the music
• Tony Marriott - faith and fairytales
• Stars - the night starts here
